suppose x is an odd number. write an expression to represent each of the following:

a. the odd number immediately following x.

b. the odd number immediately preceding x.

=^)

a. The odd number immediately following x = ( x+ 2)

b. The odd number immediately preceding x = ( x- 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Odd Numbers : The number which DO NOT have  2 as their common factor are called odd numbers.

Hence, odd number IS NOT divisible by 2.

Some examples are :  1,3,5,7,9,

So, by the given examples, we can see that the difference between any TWO consecutive  odd number  is ALWAYS 2.

Here, given  x  :  odd number

So, using the above argument :

a. The odd number immediately following x = ( x+ 2)

b. The odd number immediately preceding x = ( x- 2)

b is 38 degrees.

a is 52 degrees.

this is because if b is 38 and a is 14 degrees more than b than 38+14=52 and 52+38=90 degrees. hope this .

we have

the roots are ( x-intercepts) x=-0.5,x=1,x=3

the y-intercept is the point (0,3)
